Question

If 2x+ 3y =12 and 3x - 2y =5 then (a) x = 2, y = 3 (b) x = 2, y = -3 (c) x = 3, y = 2 (d) x = 3, y = -2

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: C . 3 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying first equation by 2 and second by 3 and adding we get x = 3.

Putting x = 3 in 1st,  

we get 2 x 3 + 3y = 12  

.`. 3y = 6

.'. y = 2.

So x = 3 and y = 2.
